Does the 90 day no compete count as only TV/PPV or also performances taped FOR TV/PPV?

That's an excellent question. I honestly don't know.

I think the 90 day no compete only counts for shows that will be released on DVD or shown before the 90 days are up. I could be wrong though.

Chavo's tweets make him sound like a bit of a faggot, but I wish him well regardless. I loved him in the WCW days with Pepe and the "EDDIE GUERRERO IS MY FAVORITE WRESTLER" t-shirt. Not really so much at all since then, but whatever.

GD 06-25-2011 01:49 PM

Chavo Guerrero should go to ROH.

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 01:51 PM

Does Chavo really think he should have been a main eventer or something? He never would have worked at the top, no matter how you pushed him. He should have just been happy to have a job in the biggest wrestling company in the world. He almost comes off as a less irritating Bob Holly.

Evil Vito 06-25-2011 01:57 PM

<font color=goldenrod>I'm pretty sure during the Daniel Bryan fiasco it was revealed that WWE has to approve any and all bookings you take during those 90 days. So yeah, they certainly wouldn't sign off on him working the ROH tapings for their first TV show.

Seeing him ultimately wind up in ROH though would not surprise me, I'd love to see what he does there. A return to Mexico is also a good possibility.</font>

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 02:04 PM

WWE GETS:

*Alberto Del Rio
*Sin Cara

MEXICO GETS:


*Chavo Guerrero

:lol:

As if Mexico wasn't shitty enough already.

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 02:05 PM

(Apologies to my Mexican friends. You know te quiero)

The one thing that was blowing my mind was that he was comparing himself to his Uncle. He was entertaining in WCW and to a lesser extent WWE, but he lacked the one thing Eddie had in SPADES: Charisma. Chavo is a great worker, no doubt. However, he couldn't pull off some of the face promos Eddie could. And he sure as SHIT couldn't pull off the heel promos.

That being said, he shouldn't have been jobbing to 'Swog for a year straight. I mean, Laurinitis used him to torpedo one guy, and that wasn't enough for him? (If you're wondering, I was referring to Finlay.) I wouldn't consider 'Swog a significant enough draw for WWE to warrant that. He shouldn't have been the top guy, but he also shouldn't have been made into a joke is what I'm saying.

I do want to point out that Holly did good work with Cody. That was probably the perfect role for him: He gets to play the hard ass he is and Cody got to get "toughened up" as a result. Come to think of it, I wouldn't mind seeing a vet with a kind of gimmick like that.

I don't know Chavo personally, like everyone else here, but my guess would be that he knew he would never be a legit main-eventer, but he also knew he was better than programs with Hornswoggle and dressing as an Eagle. Which is right.

The angle with Sin Cara had him on the right track, but I guess it was too little too late.

Rammsteinmad 06-25-2011 03:09 PM

Ok Vastardikai pretty much beat me to it. :foc:

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 03:10 PM

The Swagger Soaring Eagle was incredible. What the fuck else could you want out of your career?

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 03:11 PM

Kerwin White was going to be amazing too, but NOOOOOOOOOOOO, Chavo is too good for that.

Honestly, rejecting that gimmick is probably what set him on the course he ran, knowing Vince's ego.

Jordan 06-25-2011 03:19 PM

Chavo in TNA would be horrible, Chavo in ROH I just don't see a fit, he should go to CMLL or AAA if he wants to be a main eventer.

The Kerwin White gimmick was dropped when WWE wanted to exploit Eddie's death and then decided Chavo couldn't "cut it", turning to Mysterio instead.

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 03:22 PM

I heard Chavo denounced the gimmick after Eddie's death, claiming that he didn't want his character denying his heritage in the wake of the tragic event. HOW CAN WE TELL WHO'S RIGHT?????

Anybody Thrilla 06-25-2011 03:22 PM

If he would have stuck with it, he could have gotten mega shit bag heat.

CSL 06-25-2011 03:25 PM

didn't see this coming, thought he'd be around forever as an agent eventually. Wouldn't surprise me if he wanted out, I think he'll be back down the line ala Kidman, Bill DeMott etc

CSL 06-25-2011 03:25 PM

well this is a bit longer than I thought it was

Oh no doubt about it, but then would we have got Dolph Ziggler or even the Spirit Squad? What about the 2006 DX reunion and the infamous Vince vs God tag team match?

SO MUCH WOULD HAVE CHANGED HAD CHAVO STUCK WITH IT.

Gertner 06-25-2011 04:23 PM

For someone who basically kept his job because his uncle died he should be thankful he got to stick around and get a steady paycheck.

VSG 06-25-2011 04:27 PM

What brother?

Gertner 06-25-2011 04:41 PM

Oh, and Kerwin White was the best gimmick in the past 30 years.

yeah i wish he would have left 2 years ago before the hornswogle angle, i would have loved seeing him with homicide when lax was cool, but then tna would probly put him in an angle with eric young dressing as a turkey.

Emperor Smeat 06-25-2011 05:10 PM

Sort of surprised he got released since I figured he would have gotten a job as an agent or something else like most other long-time wrestlers with the company but if he wasn't enjoying his job anymore then it makes sense why he wanted to leave.

He's probably been very wise with his money and figured the best time to retire or leave would be now and not have to worry about rushing back into wrestling just to earn some needed cash like a Flair.

Loved Kerwin White. Chavo being himself is boring.

Kane Knight 06-25-2011 05:23 PM

OMG NO. He was just getting good!

St. Jimmy 06-25-2011 08:18 PM

DAMMIT. =/ I was FOR SURE that Ryder was first blood. Fuck.

Lock Jaw 06-26-2011 12:52 AM

I have always liked Chavo, with periodic stints of really liking him. Hope he does well.

He definitely could have been used much better than the WWE was using him. At one point I could have bought him moving up to the upper card.

Like right after his last feud with Eddie. Then Eddie won the title, and Chavo fought him... I remember thinking... "Yeah. Ok. I can buy this guy as a top guy."

So now Chavo is gone from WWE. Where does he go? What does he do now?

Kill Vicki and capitalize off her death for 5 more years.

Probably just them not giving a shit about NXT than anything else, really.

Wasn't Carlito Darren Young's pro? So... being associated with DY carries with it a "Nega-Cena Future Endeavor Curse" ???*



*after typing that out, I just remembered that Punk was Young's pro, and "refused to coach him" because he wasn't straightedge. I just thought it was JUST amusing enough to keep rolling with it, though.

Mr. Nerfect 06-26-2011 02:07 AM

This is interesting. I guess Chavo Guerrero actually wants to work and "tell stories" in the ring. I felt that the WWE had given him quite a bit of time to do that on NXT, Superstars and even SmackDown! and PPV lately. I think maybe Chavo feels himself getting a bit older, and realises that if he's ever going to have those matches near the top somewhere, that makes people think boats were missed with him, it better be now. I have no doubt he'll return to the WWE at a later date as an agent or trainer when he misses the big paychecks a bit more.

I hope this isn't the self-destruction of Chavo Guerrero, though, and that he doesn't burn bridges promising the world and then doing a few indy dates. As a fan of Chavo's, I believe that his ring ability and connection to fans (regardless of whether you consider Chavo "charismatic" or not, he was always over) has got enough validity even today to make him of value to both TNA and ROH.

Honestly, I'd love to see Chavo given the gimmick of a veteran who knows more about wrestling than "kids these days," despite not being over the top, and give him a no-nonsense, "here to finally win" shtick. I'd love to see Kurt Angle vs. Chavo Guerrero, actually.
